HTC One (M8) bootloader rumored to support WP and vice versa

HTC is gearing up to announce the Windows Phone version of the One M8, but before that we're treated to an interesting rumor. The bootloader of the HTC W8, as its purportedly called, supports the Windows Phone and Android versions of the device.

In practice, this means that the HTC One M8 can be flashed with Windows Phone 8.1 and vice versa.

HTC's upcoming Windows Phone is should feature a Snapdragon 801 chipset, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, microSD card slot and 5" full HD display. If the rumors pans out to be true, we might be looking at an upcoming modern version of the legendaryHTC HD2.

And hopefully this will lead other manufacturers to follow with the freedom of choosing a platform. And changing it. Would be great! If they would sell a 'blank' phone and upon the first boot, let the user choose the OS. Couple this with Google's mod...
